Re: Found Footage Films

Anyone here is watching Siberia , the tv show on NBC ?

It's a reality tv show or at keast it was setup totally like a reality tv show like "Survivor". 16 contestants will be stranded in the siberian wilderness and left to fend for themselves for a competition.These contestants, from varied walks of life, will attempt to battle the elements and each other in a quest to survive the harsh winter and claim a large cash prize. Only just watched the first episode , will be catching the other episodes later. If anyone had just tune in halfway through that first episode , they would have thought this was a real reality tv show. It's survivor meets Lost. It's pretty interesting. A mockumentary or mock reality tv show.

^^FMV-I've watched it since the beginning. The funkiness is great, especially if you just go with the "it's a reality show" concept. Eventually it breaks down (maybe 2/3rds in?) since there is too much going on that can't be captured on the reality aspect all the time.

The acting is not the greatest, there's little FX, but the overall arc is neat. There are some dull-ish episodes, but work through them for the next one.

Just finished the finale , can't believe that they just leave the end like that. Is there supposed to be a season 2 of this show ?!

The first episode was good with the whole reality tv concept but it breaks down after only a few episodes in. Sometimes , the camera (or the people behind the camera) gets involved , other times , it doesn't but act like standard camera filming.

I expected more deaths to the cast though. All in all , the series was okay. Not as freaky as i would have liked.
